Hairs cut!

Filed under Self by at 10:18 pm on Mar 30 2009

It’s rare that you ask someone to cut your hair and they do exactly what you want stylishly and accurately, in a way you can maintain. Very, very rare. But I waited long enough and my patience was rewarded.

This was my hair before. This is what I asked for – a kind of a Callie from Grey’s Anatomy thing. (BTW who is the awesomest person on that show? Callie Torres. Yeah, that’s right.) Bree had to blow it out to make sure the lengths were right so yesterday I just had this pic to show for the result. Which, well nice, doesn’t display the full accuracy of the haircut! So today before book club came over I grabbed this shot of the new hair:

OK So my self-portrait skills aren’t the greatest yet, but hopefully you can see that she nailed it.

Book club met here to discuss Brave New World. Most folks know I don’t go in for dystopias much, and this book was no exception. I just don’t buy the line, in part because I’m overly idealistic and in part because I care more about real terrible shit that’s happening today. Nevertheless, there are some salient points in the book that stiull apply, although some of it seems positively quaint. I am reminded however of countless other dystopian novels I feel obligated to read so I can speak with authority on them – Anthem, Handmaid’s Tale.

I had to call out of my tattoo appointment Saturday, and spent the day ensconced on the couch rotting my brain with NCIS (♥ McGee), Supernatural (oh, the angst!), and L&O: CI (soaking up the Noth). I found out today that I got a flawless victory on my Chem exam, so in retrospect, I deserved the relaxing of the neurons. I expect a little more out of myself next weekend!

    Nice cut. Of course that could just be my envy of anyone with a lot of hair talking.

    I really hope my hair appointment goes as well as yours did. I adore your new haircut. It’s perfection.

    I would like to be part of a book club.

    You would really like my other friend Angela who lives in Philly. I should introduce you and you should start a book club with her. :)
